Are there any plans in the roadmap to make UCP compatible with an existing swarm created with docker-machine
I know it’s probably possible if I manually create all the containers, but I’m looking for something along the lines of a option in the installer or equivalent.

Hi Lox99, which problem are specifically talking about resolving? Lance’s question above was about making UCP compatible with an existing Swarm. UCP needs to stand up its own Swarm cluster due to TLS and certs. However, this is something we (UCP team) may look at for the future.

If I understand your question correctly, it is more about using docker-machine hosts with UCP. You can do actually do this, but as you point out since the docker daemon uses port 2376, so you have to use --swarm-port [port] when installing UCP (where the port is anything not in use, including 2376). We’ll look to make this process easier in the future.
